How to Make Money Blogging For Beginners

How to Make Money for Blogger

Nobody ever talks about blogging for beginners with no experience.

I am talking about true beginners.

There are tons of posts online that talk about making money with blogs.

But most of them are too complicated for beginners to understand.

It ends today!

However, I want to clear some common mistakes.

What is Your Blog About

Very often I see bloggers covering many topics on one blog.

If you want to cover lots of different topics on your blog then fine.

But if you want to earn money from that blog, then you need to cover a topic well first.

You can then proceed to other subjects. It may seem counterproductive, but trust me, it works.

If you are having trouble reading the blog topic then read it.

Free Blogging Platforms

I'm just going to come out and say

No one wants to buy from a blog built on a free platform.

If you don't think readers can tell when you're using a free platform, you're wrong.

When readers come to your blog and notice that it is made for free, they do not take you seriously.

And you really can't blame them for this. People only want to buy from places they trust.

If you cannot spend $ 10 per year on a website, you will not earn the trust of your reader.

A domain costs $ 10 a year (some less). There is no reason to create free software.

Free services like Blogger and WordPress.com are great for hobby blogging - not for business.

There is a Very Bigger difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org.

Now that we have got the basics, time is taken care of for good stuff.

Let's Start Making Money

How to Make Money For Blogger

Unlike other bloggers, I am only going to include ways to make money that I know work from personal experience.

There is enough theory to roam online, I don't need to add to it.

Affiliate Marketing

Affiliate Marketing

It is the most popular money making method for bloggers due to lower startup costs.

Blogging and affiliate marketing go together like peanut butter and jelly.

You should be blogging about things that you are passionate about.

Affiliate marketing allows you to monetize that passion by allowing and allowing you to sell related products and services.

If you want to start affiliate marketing now, there is nothing to stop you.

All you need is a blog and to open a free account on Amazon, WalMart, Target or any other affiliate network.

Each product has a free affiliate program where you can sign up and start promoting immediately.

If you do not decide to make it your main strategy, it is still a great way to earn passive income.

Advertisement

Selling advertising space is another great way to earn money from a new blog. It is very easy.

Other websites and business owners prefer to buy 'advertising space' on blogs.

They know that blog readers are loyal and engaged, so they try to tap into it and they are willing to pay well for it.

Generally the more popular blogs you are, the more you will pay for space.

There are many ways to find advertisers for your blog.

One way is that you are looking for advertisers.

You can also contact other blogs and businesses related to you and arrange a private deal with them.

There are also networks that will connect bloggers and advertisers.

Ad Network

Many bloggers use ad networks to monetize their blogs.

There is no risk for the blogger and starting it is really simple and quick.

All you have to do is sign the network (or network) you signed up with and they will tell you how to set up everything.

Here's a list to get you started:

Adsense (owned by Google)
Media.net
Viglink
Infolinks
Adbrite

There are many more options if you decide to go with an ad network.

Personally, I start at the top of the list and see what suits your needs the most.

Local Marketing

Depending on the topic of your blog, local marketing can be a very effective method.

Small and medium-sized business owners are always on the lookout for advertising news.

Fortunately, more and more of them are starting to realize the power of blogging (and web content in general).

Smart business owners in your area will jump at the opportunity to put their name somewhere on your blog.

The best thing about local marketing is that there is no specific way to do this.

You can do something as simple as selling them a small space for your logo, somewhere on your blog.

You can even write them a guest post or special article - as long as it is relevant to your blog. This is a more advanced strategy but is often used.

Tip: With local marketing, you can be even more creative with your marketing efforts.

Freelancing

Freelancing

The need for materials has grown astronomically over the years.

The rise of social media and mobile devices has given a boost to people consuming more content than ever before.

Companies of all sizes are trying to fill that demand by creating as much content as possible.

Many of them do not have in-house publishing teams.

So they appoint freelancers to write content for them.

Freelance writing can be a very lucrative, long-term career.

The best thing about freelancing is that you don't need to do anything to get started.

If you have an internet connection and you are a good keyboard to go to.

It is best, if you are a new blogger, that you know, stick to it.

But, if your research skills are good enough then you can write anything.

To get started you only need to make contact with businesses that have an online presence and ask them if they need help with their content.

You can send them an email or call.

Stick to big businesses if possible.


Medium-sized businesses will also work, but it is best to avoid small ones.
